When to book flights to Madrid
Summers in Madrid are hot, humid and busy. Museums, galleries, restaurants and bars in the city are full of locals and tourists and it can be sweaty work navigating your way around in the burning Spanish sun. As this is peak tourist season, flights to Madrid will be a little more expensive – so you’ll need to look hard if you want to bag a great deal.
The winter in Madrid is surprisingly cold and the city is generally a lot quieter and greyer between November and March. Hotels and flights are more affordable at this time of year. If you’re on a budget, this could be a good time to travel.
